The main component of quartz is SiO2, which is one of the most widely distributed minerals on the surface of earth. It exists in large quantities in igneous rocks, metamorphic rocks and sedimentary rocks. With good performance, quartz products are widely used in semiconductor, photovoltaic industry, communication industry, lamps and lighting industry and other fields.
Common quartz products mainly include quartz crucibles, parts made of quartz, high-purity quartz glass product and ordinary quartz glass product. Quartz crucible can be used to melt or calcinate metals, glasses and pigments because it is resistant to high temperatures. Parts made of quartz are generally used in wafer processing equipment. Quartz glass is a single-component glass and one of the most valuable materials in science and industry. It is made by pulverizing natural crystals mined from the earth into fine particles and then melting them in a hydrogen-oxygen flame. Compared with ordinary quartz glass products, the purity of high-purity quartz glass is extremely high, and the metal impurities are less than one-tenth of it. Therefore, the high-purity quartz glass product market is very broad, with a market share of 56.53% in 2019.
The stability, light transmittance and heat resistance of quartz make it an indispensable part of the manufacture of semiconductors and photovoltaic cells. The high temperature and chemical processing in the semiconductor manufacturing process cannot be separated from ultra-high purity quartz glass products. At the same time, whether in the production and diffusion process of thin films, or as fixtures and consumables during wafer transportation and cleaning, quartz products also play an important role in the processing of increasingly thinner and high-purity semiconductors. In addition, standard photovoltaic cells require extremely pure polysilicon made of quartz for silicon diodes and reaction chambers. In addition to these main applications, quartz is increasingly used in a range of lighting and communications industries. Quartz glass has excellent light transmittance and heat resistance, so it is widely used in various lamps, including mercury lamps, halogen lamps, xenon lamps and so on. The application of quartz glass in communication optical fiber is also inseparable from its light transmittance. In addition, because the quartz-type optical fiber has a small transmission loss, it can be widely used in broadband and long-distance transmission communications. In general, the semiconductor industry has the broadest quartz application market, with a market share of 57.66% in 2019.
